I’ve used a cordless drill and it makes it a lot easier. Swinging the light and trying to rotate properly was like rubbing your head with one hand and patting your stomach with the other. Just too confusing for my little brain!!

you were using blinking LED-is , or you had tape with evenly distributed LED-is and you hold it with both hands when you were spinning it, or you had one LED with exactly defined time how long is it ON or OFF , and if is like that , it should be hanging on some string.

There is a neighborhood near me that the entire street does Xmas lights on all the houses. Do you think it would be to much light to try on the middle of the road with all the house lights in the background?

Greetings! Have you thought about photo sfxart tricks (search on google)? My mate David made some amazing photography with their video tutorials.

Have you gotten an answer yet, bcuz I don’t know how you did the last one, with many orbs. I’m going to guess, because I’m just starting out: a strobe or bounce lighting OR many people at once?

you have those led lights. stood to the side. held one end in your left hand. one end in your right. with some slack between the two, you then spun them in a motion similar to winding up a towel, planning to whip someone…however you did it with you hands at north and south poler ends. so it was vertical not horizontal when still.
at least thats what i think you did

At the last picture there, you used a round or a circle wire and attched a small individual Led lights and you spin around.

well, i guess i’m far to late to answer your question about how you did the lightning in that one particually photo, but anyway… i would guess you used some kind of “christmas light arch” which are very popular over here in sweden… But i actually don’t know how to call them in english.
greetings from sweden!!!
there are cordless versions of this as well…
did i get it right?
